Ole Miss Quarterback, Ryan Buchanan is a Rebel through and through; he grew up "scoring touchdowns" in the Grove while wearing a much smaller Ole Miss football jersey. He's been to the Grove many times, and his favorite "Grove food" are the classic Chick-fil-A nuggets!

Ryan remembers his first "Walk of Champions." He tells about getting goose bumps and not believing he was finally there on his first "walk." Although this was a life changing experience, his favorite walk was hours before the goal posts came down—the day College Game Day and Katy Perry visited the Grove for the first time.

Before each and every game Ryan makes sure he hugs his mama on the Walk of Champions. "I wouldn't be able to walk on the field without it!"

Ryan is a member of the fraternity Kappa Alpha Order here at Ole Miss. Through this brotherhood Ryan has made lifelong friends that he would have never met if he had not gone Greek. Ryan loves giving back and has a heart for Muscular Dystrophy thanks to his fraternity Kappa Alpha Order.

Ryan Buchanan is a Mississippi native, who led the Jackson Prep Patriots to their MAIS football state championship his senior year!

Growing up Ryan played almost all sports, but in the ninth grade he went from all-around athlete to solely pursuing football. Ryan saw football as a religion here in the south.

Football isn't the only sport Ryan still indulges in. He tells of his love for golf. "During the off season you can find me on the golf course!"

For the past six years he has enjoyed watching "American Idol" with his dad and brother. Although Ryan is tone deaf, he really enjoys playing the guitar.

Ryan is a business finance major and fun fact: Ryan's grandfather, Henry Holman, founded the Holman School of Business here at Ole Miss.

Ryan's very proud of his accomplishment of Eagle Scout! He was a Boy Scout for five years then finally obtained the privilege of becoming an Eagle Scout.

In his (little) off-time, Ryan enjoys bow hunting. His favorite targets are deer and turkey.
